The rams could pummel one side while the elk punches a few “air holes” on the other side. <br /><br />“It’s art, man!!! Too bad we didn’t consider who or what would be affected.”<br /><br />Humans that think they know better than anyone else or view this planet as their personal tapestry is a major reason why we are in this environmental mess. Hopefully Mr. Christo receives some heated discussion every inch of the way.Coloradocastershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09119352004897572752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337379767320336838.post-68308953429143901092011-05-26T08:15:58.432-07:002011-05-26T08:15:58.432-07:00Didn't see this thing happening at all, nice e...Didn't see this thing happening at all, nice exhibit though if you get a chance to see it!Troutdawghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05785673467710432254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337379767320336838.post-6211921181770233692011-05-26T07:46:20.702-07:002011-05-26T07:46:20.702-07:00Beings as I consider the Ark my home water, I coul...Beings as I consider the Ark my home water, I couldn't agree more. The thought of not only what traffic and construction would be like, we really don't know how much of this activity would affect the insect and fish lives, not to mention other wildlife. I know that a lot of people from that area are thinking dollars lost if this doesn't happen, but they're forgetting the possible damage done and could take years to restore. Thanks Matt for the rant. Now you got me going again.cofisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12288930899340581141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5337379767320336838.post-50487519834210435462011-05-26T07:43:20.872-07:002011-05-26T07:43:20.872-07:00Midgeman recently posted about this as well.

Nature makes her own art - and it is better than any artist can create with his brush, oils, watercolors or in this case fabric. I support the arts, but I refuse to support them where they don't belong, and that is over the Arkansas River. This is an absolutley ludricous idea for Colorado to even consider. If he wants to display his work, take it to the East Coast to some downtrodden city that needs a bit of beauty.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12081984259159466260noreply@blogger.com
